Carphone Warehouse have got an offer on at the moment where you can buy an unlocked Nokia 1100 for £29.99p.(If you trade in another old mobile for it they give you £10.)With the Nokia 1100 you get a T Mobile sim with £10 of calls on it.I sold the sim for £10.

So i ended up paying £9.99p for the new nokia 1100.

£29.99-£10 trade in-£10 for sim =£9.99p

    Thats why i headed the posting £19.99 or £9.99 ;)

    However you could always use the calls up yourself could you not? (and if you know any one on T-Mobile you could put it on the new Mates Tariff and get 200 minutes of calls out of the £10 ,or 200 texts to T-Mobiles).

    Well to get it at £9.99 you need to have an existing virgin mobile sim card. You then register your sim card with https://www.virginmobile.com.

    Then
    1. Click on 'My Account'
    2. Login using your virgin mobile phone number and password you created when registering
    3. Click on 'Buy a phone'
    4. 'Phone without sim'
    5. 'Bargains and re-furbished phones'

    there will be about 2 pages of phones.. with a £10 reduction on all phones..

    example
    Sony Ericsson T630 £39.99
    Samsung E800 £99.99
    Nokia 1100 £9.99
    etc..

    hope it helps..
